Greenwood Council Debates Raises

GREENWOOD — With no consensus on how to dole out raises to department heads, the Greenwood City Council will likely be faced with at least two resolutions to consider.

During a study session Tuesday night, the council spent nearly three hours debating which of the city’s nine department directors deserve raises.

Current salaries were compared to Arkansas cities with similar populations, like Clarksville, Monticello and Osceola, to determine “if we are in line with what other communities are paying,” Councilman Lee Johnson said.
